why would minato need a chakra cloak if he's an edo?
it makes pretty much no sense
its completely useless to him
unless he's not able to keep up with the other hokages
You must be registered for see images

in this mode he has yet to do something that he cant do at his base. ftg is something he doesnt need a cloak for

but the thing minato has never done was use shikisekiyoujin

now minato has to get in kcm mode for this massive jutsu but the other hokages dont need anything like that

doesnt that suggest that minato clearly isnt on the same level as the other hokages unless he is in kcm
You must be registered for see images

clearly the jutsu is complicated if only kage can do it
maybe its even more of a challenge for minato
thats why he needed kcm
perhaps minato is being overrated because hes the only hokage that needed a cloak
he doesnt need the cloak for anything else

another thing
if minato had the chakra it doesnt make sense that he gets kcm cloak
he should have got a crimson cloak like kin and gin
or the kind of the shinobi alliance

jeez the kurama chakra spam has yet to stop

Because cloaks are awesome. Do you need any other reason?

I agree but I think Kishi used it to show everyone that Minato does indeed still have the other half of Kurama's chakra :)

Minatos appearance has nothing to do with kurama
Madara, obito, and hashirama are able to do that too

Why would you NOT do something that boosts your power against the strongest creature ever?

what would he need it for?
there is no purpose unless he really did need it for the shikisekiyoujin thing because he didnt have power
hes already an edo and he cant do anything new that he hasnt done before
rasengan and ftg
what else
it makes him look badass Minato is a beast Deal With It hater

basically it has no purpose other than looking cool

It is to show that Minato has Kurama's chakra sealed inside of him, if anyone can perform sealing techniques i think it would be him! so no, he doesnt need the cloak. Besides i think FTG the juubi's TBB takes alot of chakra, and he did that in his normal state. We have to wait and see what other sealing techs he can perform, but till now he doesnt really need the cloak in my opinion

actually Hashirama would stomp any mode of Naruto as of now, possibly Tobirama would too.

Technically, Minato doesn't need a power boost. He is an Edo, so his chakra is unlimited.

The reason he used it is because Kishimoto just wanted to show that Minato still has Kurama's chakra, and also to add more hype to Minato. Afterall, no other host of the kyuubi has been able to mold its chakra into KCM besides Naruto. All that does is show us Minato is an even bigger badass than we thought.

smoke'em if you got'em, if he has it to use, why not use it? Of course this doesn't automatically mean Minato was helpless without it, it's just extra fire power

Well then i guess Hasirama isn't kage level without sage mode.
Kishi just showed us that Minato has something more and that he was able to master it really fast when Naruto took much longer time.

completely disagree. The simple fact is: using the kyuubi's chakra will give minato's techniques a substantial boost in power. Frankly, in their current situation they need as much power as they can get. The chakra is available to him, and if he didn't use it it would be a disservice to the alliance.
